The group played a charity concert at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland Tuesday night — a show allegedly intended to be friendly to Republican National Convention attendees. But frontman Stephen Jenkins, who has spoken against the GOP in the past, didn't play it safe for Republican concertgoers.

Instead, he chastised for the GOP for its positions on LGBT rights and evolution, at one point responding to boos with "You can boo all you want. I'm the motherf**king artist up here."
Also absent from the show were most of Third Eye Blind's hit songs, including "Semi-Charmed Life" and "Never Let You Go." The band did opt to play "Jumper" — which Jenkins previously described to Billboard as, "a noir about a guy who jumped off a bridge and killed himself because he was gay."
"To love this song is to take into your heart the message," Jenkins told audience members.
Jenkins also apparently asked the audience, "Who here believes in science?"
